The Basket of Deplorables...

The Basket of Deplorable...

On a weekend solemnly remembered by most Americans, a weekend of mourning by These United States and Her citizens, for any person, and certainly a person so significant in the political world, to call, name or designate a group of people "the basket of deplorables" for merely supporting a political foe is, in and of itself, deplorable.

The citizens of These United States know exactly who is actually in the proverbial "basket of deplorables"

We know that that basket is filled with the innumerable politicians and political hacks of both parties, or of no party, who self identify as "leaders" both before and after the attacks of 9/11/2001.
We know that basket is full of the deplorables who would "let no crisis/disaster go to waste". We are aware that the real basket of deplorables use every avenue to usurp the very liberties with which you are charged to protect in our most sacred document...Our Constitution.

That basket is filled with contemptuous deplorables who have, do and will lie about anything and everything to get what they want most, which most often, is more power.

More deplorables in that basket consist of those politicians, political hacks, union bosses, and appointees of the aforementioned tasked with the rebuilding and memorializing of the crash sites of 9/11/2001. 15 years later, 15 damned years and still not complete. In comparison, it took under three years to build the St. Louis Arch and just 3 years to build Willis Tower(Sears Tower). You folks, from permitting, to decision making to union bosses are deplorable.

Even worse are the 535 deplorables in Congress who can't seem to pass any meaningful legislation to benefit the vets or anything else for that matter, can't make any sizeable budget cuts, and can't even have a civil serious discussion without demonizing the opposition. In contrast, 40 brave souls on flight 93 took about 20 minutes....40people from all walks of life, of all different religious and theological backgrounds from different areas, most of which were strangers to one another,talked for a few minutes, (Incidentally while their lives were literally hanging in the balance), and then they voted and decided that the terrorists, at any costs, would not win!!! I would personally give my life for this country to have those 40 brave souls back and to replace any 40 of those 535 deplorables.

Madam Secretary, There are many deplorables making up many baskets of deplorables in our great Nation. That said, they are not identified by party affiliation, nor by support for a given candidate. You see, Madam Secretary, they are identified by watching where the monies go and the powers grow.

You, You Madam Secretary, are certainly identifiable. Not in one basket but in many many "Baskets of Deplorables".

Almost Half the Population May be Infected with a Mysterious Virus That Makes People Stupid!

No, Seriously. This is a horrible virus spreading throughout the world. It's spread through lies, misinformation, half truths, dishonesty...Yes, spread mostly through media sources. It's called liberalism. Yes, it is a disease of the mind. It is an infectious disease spread through colleges, and government halls of indoctrination(public schools), by union thugs in those halls, and by union thugs elsewhere in the world. It's spread by media outlets who have lost their way to truth. It's spread by many instructors, mentors, teachers, even preachers/priests who are self called to preach their word rather than The Word, so called leaders with an agenda other than honorable service to the country. The agenda is usually, if not always self promotion and adoration mixed with a bit of greed for monetary increase and social influence.

Be very aware of your surroundings, your friends, your co-workers who espouse views that would impede independence and sacrifice Liberty in exchange for the "greater good". It usually ends dangerously for all but those at the very top of the food chain.

Be independent, be Free, Be Smart. Be informed. Know your history. Know your enemy. Know those who would tear you apart for their self promotion,. Don't get infected!

When God Closes a Door He Opens a Window

Most of us have heard this saying at some point in our lives. Many have lived it and others go through life depending on it to be fact and sometimes never have to stand on that faith.

I am living this today. I am standing on the faith that God will see us through our troubles and continue to bless us with the amazing grace He has shown all the prior days of our lives. I guess I'll explain what has happened, what is happening and the outcome, as far as we know it now.

I have never been one to share my personal strife or trials online or in person unless the one with whom I am sharing is a very close family member, IE: Mother, sister, wife. That being said, I am changing my policy because of the support we have received for our mission with the 9-12 Project Truck. The story goes as follows.

On the 17th of October, on our way from Salt Lake City UT to Atlanta GA I was driving through the Smokey Mountains in TN between Chattanooga and Nashville. Mont eagle is the town at the top of the mountain.
View Larger Map

As you descend the mountain headed southeast, the scenery is unbelievable at all times of year but this morning seemed especially gorgeous. It was mid October, the leaves were changing, the sun was just cresting the mountain tops to the East, and it was cold enough that there was a heavy frost on most surfaces. The air was brisk but refreshingly clean with the windows of the truck cracked just enough to feel the cool breeze.

I had the radio on and had, just prior to topping the mountain, been listening to Cowboy Church on XM 13 (Willies Place), now renamed Cowboy Camp Meeting I believe. By the time I started down the hill on the south east side, Bill Mack's Sunday Social had started on that same channel. I was looking out the window in awe of the beauty that morning. The sun was heating up just enough to start to warm the roofs of the few buildings you can see off to the south east. Many of the leaves had already begun to fall off the trees and that made the view of those buildings somewhat better though still a bit obscure. As the sun was warming the roofs the frost had started to melt and a fog or steam from that was rising off the roof of an old, somewhat dilapidated, small metal shed and the song below came on the radio behind Bill Mack's booming, easily recognizable voice. The song is Kris Kristofferson's "Why Me".



I'm not sure how any one man can be so blessed but in that moment, and actually in retrospect all moments, I feel I was and am the most blessed man on earth. Since I started driving I had always wanted to be in the Smokey Mountains at this time of year and under these conditions because I had always heard about the beauty that abounds. Words can do it NO justice. Even pictures cannot capture all the many facets of nature's beauty and God's gracious gifts. I could go on about this five minutes for a lifetime...but I'll not.

We continued down the road and near Atlanta I noticed an SUV riding beside me and reading the side of the truck. The road there, reading, taking pictures and waiving for several miles, probably 10 miles or more in all reality. Finally I decided, in the interest of safety and traffic flow, to pull off the road and talk to the people and let them take some good pictures and learn about the 9-12 Project. I pulled off on an off ramp, exited the truck and gave them some reading materials. They signed the truck and allowed me to take a picture of them and their family. This was a very kind Christian family that was eager to learn about the mission.

Following a brief exchange we all moved on and Tina and I continued on to our Atlanta terminal for a Sunday afternoon delivery.

After arriving at the Atlanta terminal we were asked to run a load into Miami that evening for Monday morning. The load was to be ready at 2100. We received a call at about 1600 that there was an earlier Miami load and asked if we could pull it instead of the later one. We complied and off to Miami we headed.

THE "UNWANTED SOBATICAL" CAUSING EVENT: Just south of Macon, at mile post 133, I pulled off the road due to shoulder, jaw and neck pain, and blurred vision. Any guesses? That's right, I was having a heart attack. Tina called 911 and I was picked up by an ambulance and transported to Medical Center of Central Georgia and into the emergency room. After some tests and preparatory procedures they rushed me to the Heart catheter unit and placed a stent in one of the coronary arteries. The artery was 100% blocked by a clot that had broken loose from another location and moved to the heart causing a blockage.

On the night of the 17th of October, after all was said and done, the attending physician informed Tina and me that I had suffered a significant Heart attack but that most of the damage had seemingly been averted with prompt action by the first responders and my quick recognition of a problem, not to mention the amazing Emergency room team and the team in the heart catheter lab.

I stayed in the hospital until the 22nd and was released to go home. Tina drove and we arrived there late Friday evening. Since that time, the news has gotten somewhat worse.

After much testing and many doctors visits, it has been determined that I have suffered a massive heart attack with substantial heart damage. The damage that I have encountered is bad enough that the F.M.C.S.A. (page 94/95)will not allow my re-certification as a commercial driver. Further, it appears at this point that I will need an I.C.D. device implanted to regulate when necessary and shock when necessary, my heart function.

Moving forward: Unfortunately, as mentioned above, the F.M.C.S.A. will not allow me to be re-certified as a commercial driver with the condition of my heart nor will they permit driving with an icd.

I find it heartbreaking that we will have to sell the 9-12 Project Truck. Many of you know our passion for the 9-12 Project and for the mission at hand of helping to wake up and educate the public on the demise of liberty as granted by God to our country.

That being said, when God closes a door He opens a window. I am faithful in the belief that God will provide the path that we are to follow and will lead us down that very path through fervent prayer and his answers thereof.

Finally, though the 9-12 Truck as you have grown to know it will no longer be on the road, at least not with the same vigor as before we will, in whatever endeavor we partake, be promoting, advertising and continue to espouse the Principles and values of the 9-12 Project, and we will be as loud and boisterous about it, just like before.

I will still, in the future be posting at Stop the Destruction of America about current events and my disgust for our out of control government, local, county, state, and national entities all. Please follow along and find out, when I do, about our next venture.

In closing...May the road rise to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face, the rain fall soft upon your fields and, until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand.

God Bless you all.

An Unwanted, Forced Sabbatical of at Least Two Months

While I won't go into full detail, I have been forced, for health reasons, to take a minimum of two months off.

It has come to my attention...again, through an eye opening event, that we cannot and must not continue to treat our God given temples(bodies) like a mere clunker vehicle with which to muddle through life and take us from point to point. We must treat it as a precious piece of equipment, supplied for our use, and it must be taken care of like it is your only worry in life.

I will be posting here from time to time in case you care to continue reading but there will be little news on the issue of the truck travels. I am going to try to arrange with the company to whom we are leased, for me to make the truck available, as well as myself, for appearances at venues and gatherings where we might be invited. If you have a gathering which you would like the 9/12 Truck, myself and or both to attend, please let me know here or at my twitter or Facebook page and I will do what I can to see to it that we are there.

Unfortunately these appearances can no longer go uncompensated. It does cost a lot of money to run the truck up and down the highways but our fees will be as reasonable as can be expected with this administrations energy policies driving up fuel prices and the cost of living.

I hope you will all continue to check back often to see when the 9/12 Truck will be up and running again. Again, thanks for all your continued support. It is truly appreciated.

In the mean time...Here is a novel item for the coming election year.

A Tea Party Stop for the 9/12 Truck

While we were on vacation last month with friends and family, my sister asked if we could attend a tea Party event that she was hosting in Collinsville IL on the 25th of September. I suspected it was going to be tough to get the time off after just having 3 weeks the month before but we made the request anyway.

The company to whom we are leased and specifically Todd Haerr not only authorized the time off but made a special effort to help us arrive there in time to get the truck ready for the event. Thanks Todd.

We got to the St Louis area on Friday morning, we went to my mother's place south east about 50 miles and spent Friday working on and cleaning the truck to get it ready. I also had a great visit with my mother as Tina did with her family.

Early Saturday morning we got up and headed back north to Collinsville to the American Legion Hall. What a great group of Veterans there is at that hall. The memorial out front of this hall is amazing. I neglected to get pictures but it was and is one of the nicest I have seen.

The event started at about 1400 with some young ladies called the Gateway Girls singing and dancing for the crowd. I actually compiled the following video from many clips shot on that day. They didn't just stand and sing for 12 minutes or so, they would sing, then a speaker would babble on about something and they would sing some more. Here is the video of their songs on that day.

.

After the star Spangled Banner was performed by these amazing young ladies Mike Ortiz, a Tea Party Organizer and 9/12 organizer and conservative blogger from Danville Il, spoke to the crowd about the NRA's recent capitulation on the 1st amendment and then He spoke about what is known as "The National Popular Vote" Mike's speech is below in it's entirety.



We had another speaker who spoke about constitutional law but his was more of a hawk for his personal website than a speech about the constitutionality of what is going on in America so I chose not to include it here, nor will I mention his name or website. I believe he is a hindrance to the conservative movement and certainly to constitutional law. I just don't believe He knows more about the constitution than David Barton of WallBuilders does but he certainly made some disparaging remarks about Mr. Barton who wasn't there to defend himself. It is certainly easy to attack what someone says or their person when they aren't there to defend themselves. Just another shameless, slimy attorney looking to make a name for himself. I will not be a party to furthering his cause, which seems to be Himself.

After my sister spoke for a few more minutes it was my turn. I was asked to speak about activism and activism with honor. My speech, in it's 3 part, 20 minute, entirety follows.







After the singing and dancing, the speaking and babbling was all said and done we mingled and had some great visitation and fellowship. I so love being around folks of like mind and those who are working towards the same goal... that being, Stopping the Destruction of America.

Here are a few pictures of some of the folks who attended and some of those who signed the 9/12 Truck. The first two here are family members of Tina's. The lady in the red top is an avid reader of my pointless ramblings, she is Tina's Aunt Marlene. The second lady here, in the peach colored top, a life long Democrat, is one of Tina's cousins, Janet.


Speaking of attorney's, here is Carment Durso of Durso Law Offices in Belleville IL. Another of St Claire Counties finest and most loyal Dems at a Tea Party. Carmen is a very good friend of mine and my mother's employer. He has been very good to my mother so what could I possibly say that might be bad about a guy like that...Democrat attorney or not.













Below are pictures of Josh, a brother to the Gateway Girl with whom he is pictured. These are some amazing kids. Their parents have obviously spent numerous hours teaching them right from wrong, good from bad, and that hard work will always conquer an apathetic, lethargic attitude.










Finally, a few pictures of the crowd.






Just another quick note here about a lady we met at this rally. her name is Marcia Fish and she is director of an organization called Mission of Moms. This is an amazing organization driven by donations. If you can see your way to helping this organization, Marcia and especially the troops in theater would be most appreciative.

Burning the Quran, Building the Mosque, Is there a Difference?

Why in the world would the President of the United states weigh in on the burning of the Quran in Florida by this limelight seeking pastor, Terry Jones of the Dove World Outreach Center in Gainesville FL.

This dirt bag lying miscreant that is our President has done everything but tell The Imam in the Cordoba House controversy that he agrees with what he is doing. All he had to say about that idea was that they have the constitutional right to build the Mosque. He didn't ask the Imam not to build the mosque, he didn't say it was a bad or ill conceived idea, he didn't say anything but that Rauf has the constitutional right to build.

Then, along comes an American, Terry Jones, and no matter how whacked this guy may seem or be, I believe he too has the constitutional right to Burn this book...Not that he should but he does have the right. The President now comes out against this idea, against this pastor and says he should stand down. He didn't say that the pastor has the constitutional right to burn the quran, he simply said it was a bad idea.

Really!!!! Why is it a bad idea for the pastor to to burn the quran in defiance of the Muslim religion being shoved down our throats but the Imam Rauf has the constitutional right to forge ahead with his Cordoba House project, no matter how incendiary?

Well, in my humble, usually less than popular opinion, the President knows that Christians aren't going to cut off heads to stop the Cordoba project and that the hate filled, religiously misguided, intolerant Muslims will do just that to stop or to protest the burning the Quran.

Maybe it's time that Christians stand up and be counted. Maybe it's time that we let these intolerant people of a hateful religious cult that we are tired of them coming here and telling us that WE are the intolerant group. Is it really intolerant to say you disagree or more so to show your disagreement by killing the opposition?

I don't agree with Pastor Terry Jones intention of burning the quran or any other religious symbol of any group for that matter, but I do absolutely believe that we as Christians had better stand up and be heard, regardless of the backlash. The backlash at the second coming of Christ will be far worse for not standing for Christ than being murdered by a group of hateful cultists for burning a book.

Finally, I definitely believe that if the President is going to ask the Pastor Terry Jones to stand down on the burning of the quran, I believe that he should also ask the Imam Rauf to stand down on the building of the Cordoba House as a Temple of Conquer of the Trade Towers. And make no mistake, that is the whole meaning of the Cordoba House Project.

There is just no consistency in this administration. Well, that isn't exactly true. The consistency is in the idea that the administration must do anything they can to make the United States and her Judea Christian populous look weak or intolerant or even abusive and in making all others feel or look like the down trodden or abused.

Wake up Mr President, love America or get the hell out, and that goes for everybody.

Our Vacation was Great

Wow, what a vacation. Busy, busy, busy but very rewarding. We spent the first week, from the 14th to the 19th or so, catching up on things at home. Collecting the mail, making emergency well repairs, again, and finding someone to mow the unkept mess that we call a lawn.

The second week, at least the first part of the week was spent getting ready for the "Restoring Honor" rally in D.C.. Words are inadequate to make known the true impact of this event. The estimates as seen in the Lame stream media of 87000 to 300,000 are absolutely ludicrous.

Though I have no experience or hidden abilities to count or estimate a crowd size, I can tell you that I think even I can tell the difference between 87000 "normal roamers" on the mall and what is to be believed as well over 600,000 attendees standing around enjoying an onstage event. Never the less, here are some pictures so that you can decide for yourself.




While we were away from home for the rally, we stayed at a lodge type resort in Gordonsville VA, about 90 miles or so south of D.C.. This lodge was amazing. We had with us my sister, her husband and a long time friend and his wife. We rented a 2 bedroom 2 bath log cabin with a hide-a-bed couch at the resort which was called "Shenandoah Crossing". Man, what a beautiful, well kept, scenic, even all inclusive resort.

The top picture is of one of the three pool areas. Obviously, this is one of the outside area, but there also 2 others and they have indoor pool areas as well.

The next photo is the view from our living room area at or near sunset. We had a screened in deck with a barbecue, a full kitchen, all the amenities for which you could ask. The third picture down is a picture of the outside of the cabin we rented. Honestly, this place was phenomenal. We could not have asked for a better place to stay, or for better company with which to spend our week of solitude. An entire week of no truck talk, very little political talk, no work, no worries other than where to go, what to eat, who's historical home site to visit, and where to spend next years time off.

We met some great people in and around Gordonsville VA and Charlottesville VA area while we were there visiting Thomas Jefferson's palatial estate and James Monroe's place as well. It seemed that everywhere we went, we met and spoke to several people that were going to attend the "Restoring Honor" rally in D.C.. Even though we were at least 90 miles from D.C., there was no shortage of God fearing, Bible toting, America loving Patriots ready for an amazing day of "Restoring Honor".

We met Charles F Knight and his wife of Cedar Log Systems who came all the way from Colorado to be at the rally. Again, even 90miles south of D.C., it was as if everyone we visited with came for the rally on Saturday.

The third picture here is a picture in this group of a couple of young ladies we met while touring Thomas Jefferson's home in Charlottesville VA. They are Alyssa on the left and Angie on the right. What a great couple of nice young ladies touring and learning about one of America's great founders and presidents.



On Sunday morning, after the rally on Saturday, it was time for us all to head our separate ways. Head for the house. After breakfast at the lodge restaurant, we, Tina and I, took the other four in our party to the airport in Charlottesville VA and we headed south in our rental van from Enterprise RAC. The other flew into St Louis and then drove the last 50 miles or so from there to their respective houses. Tina and I arrived home on Monday morning at about 0200 and went directly to bed. We needed a day or so to catch up on rest after our time in D.C..

As a quick programing note here. We have been invited to speak at a Tea Party event in Collinsville IL. at the American Legion Hall. We will be there, with the 912 Truck and it would be great to see some of my truck driving friends and area 9/12er's and Tea party Patriots alike.

I will be attempting to speak on honor and honor in activism. I hope to see some of you there.

In the mean time...Here is a novel item for the coming election year.
